| Summary |
Comedian Becky Lucas jokes about taboo subjects. When she realized her best childhood friend had suffered years of horrific domestic violence, Becky became determined to bring the subject out into the open.. Becky had suspected something might be wrong with her friend but did nothing, and still feels a deep regret that she didn't act on her suspicions and help her friend. But what does an abusive relationship even look like? How does it begin? And what can anyone do if they suspect someone they know is in trouble?. Becky meets with experts and attends a workshop to uncover the tactics that abusers use and learn more about the manipulation present from the outset of abusive relationships. Throughout the story, we learn about all sides of this difficult issue, and begin to understand the power of open dialogue. When people talk openly, women will find the support around them that they need to leave a dangerous relationship. |
